Potatoes help folks stay slim! ✚ HERE’s some spud-tacular news! Potatoes promote weight loss because the dense root vegetable helps sate hunger — and prevents people from wolfing down more fattening fare, new research suggests. “People tend to eat the same weight of food regardless of calorie content in order to feel full,” explains the study’s co-author Candida Rebello, a dietitian at Louisiana’s Pennington Biomedical Research Center. But experts advise avoiding fries because the oily cooking method reduces the nutritional value of taters. Hypertension makes you neurotic ✚ HYPERTENSION does more than put you at risk for heart attacks and strokes — it may trigger neurotic behavior, experts warn. Neuroticism is a personality trait in which people are wracked by negative emotions, such as anxiety, fear, guilt and depression. Researchers…

I feel that I will be able to perform and be the Bill Cosby that my audience knows me to be.” Yeah, a pervy predator accused by 60 gals who insist the disgraced TV dad doped and molested them over a decades-long spree of debauchery.

In her filing, Holcomb insists the now-74-year-old Crazy singer was a lust-crazed fiend who got her mom to give him custody so he could legally take her across state lines.

SOAP OPERA sensation Genie Francis is General Hospital’s crown jewel — and that’s making some of her co-stars rise up in jealousy, because they believe she has their bosses wrapped around her little finger, insiders tattle. The actress, 60, has played the character Laura Spencer on and off since 1977, and sources snitch that makes her feel entitled to special perks — like taking summers off so she can spend time with her hubby, Star Trek: The Next Generation star Jonathan Frakes, and their kids, Jameson, 28, and Elizabeth, 25. “Genie’s probably the most popular star the soap has ever had, and it doesn’t please her co-stars any,” gripes an insider. “They’ve seen how she’s come and gone from General Hospital at leisure over the years and came back recently to…
